I received the list of scholarships for our class sent by the director. Once again, I feel happy about our progress. The total amount of scholarships for our class increased from 2700 yuan in the first semester to 3400 yuan in the second semester and then to 4900 yuan in the third semester. Although not a single penny will reach my pocket, it is enough to reflect the progress of our classmates. The ability of a class to maximize its scholarship acquisition and continue to make progress, I think this must be what every head teacher waits for. Once, I felt ashamed because of our meager scholarship, but now, I am proud of our continuous progress. Our first prize has achieved a new breakthrough, Meng Yao and Lü Jinfeng have made the list, Sun Jiagen also won the second prize after continuous progress, and the third prize has emerged with strength. Gao Nannan, Xue Chunqing, and Li Fuzhi also won scholarships for the first time.
I called Meng Yao to the office, mainly to tell her the good news. At the beginning of the school year, I don't think she would be happy about not achieving such excellent results herself. But I "fabricated" a bit, asking her about her study situation during the winter vacation, and then asking her about her goals for the new semester, casually mentioning her scholarship goal. It seems that Meng Yao has a good grasp of her own efforts. She said her goal was 1000 yuan. When asked if she thought her efforts could achieve her goal, she confidently told me, "Probably." It seems that Meng Yao is very confident in her efforts. Indeed, Meng Yao's progress is very obvious, and now she has basically stabilized at the top level in the class. Her achievements are very comforting and satisfying to me. Talking about Meng Yao, I can't help but remember the first parent meeting.
At that time, we distributed scholarships to the parents at the parent meeting, encouraging and commending the students who won scholarships. At that time, Meng Yao's grades were not enough to win a scholarship. Her father came to me and said, "Look at others getting scholarships, my child is not ambitious, just knows how to watch TV..." The disappointment of the parents was evident. But that was a turning point. After that parent meeting, Meng Yao's grades improved dramatically, almost firmly occupying the top two spots in the class by the second year. Winning a scholarship is also an additional gain. Because progress is the greatest encouragement for a child, and progress is the greatest comfort for parents and teachers. Congratulations to Meng Yao, I hope you strive for higher goals.
Another one that pleasantly surprised me is Gao Nannan who won a scholarship for the first time. Similarly, when I called her over, I didn't go straight to the point, but instead asked her what she was doing? She thought she had done something wrong, looking innocent, saying she was chatting with classmates. I shifted the topic to talk about her life during the vacation, about her efforts and progress in the second year, which laid the foundation for her to receive the scholarship. When I mentioned that she won 100 yuan in scholarships this time, she looked full of doubt, exclaiming "Ah" with disbelief. In fact, why should this be impossible? That's the way it is, as long as you struggle, as long as you work hard, there will definitely be harvest. Of course, the teacher wants to give you some pressure in the new semester. As the number one in your group, you need to bear the responsibilities of helping members. Since you have won the scholarship, you need to maintain your academic advantage. Gao Nannan, I hope you can keep your high advantage, continue to work hard, and keep making progress.
"Qin Jinfeng, what did you do before the teacher called you?" Qin Jinfeng looked completely confused, "Cleaning." "Did someone help you with your job?" "What are your plans for the new semester?" Qin Jinfeng remained composed, and finally, I heard her say that she wanted to improve her ranking in each exam. For such a diligent and studious classmate, improvement is natural. In the first year, Qin Jinfeng's grades were not outstanding, but in the second year, her grades soared, so... you won a 1000-yuan scholarship, aren't you happy? A smile appeared on Qin Jinfeng's face, "Happy." Of course, how could one not be happy? For Qin Jinfeng, the limit has finally been broken. Of course, I also told her that she should not only excel within the class but also set her sights on the department, and breaking through should bring joy, but also bring pressure. Believe in your own abilities, maintain appropriate pressure, stay true to yourself, and improve yourself.
Xue Chunqing's efforts have finally paid off, winning his first scholarship. What I want to tell you most is that it was not easy for you to achieve these results. Teachers and parents know it clearly, and you know it even more clearly. In the first year, your grades were not ideal, but you persisted and kept working hard, improving each time, eventually entering the top ten in the class. Of course, there was a slight decline at the beginning of the year. Hope is an occasional abnormal performance. Don't let other matters affect your studies because obtaining today's achievements is really not easy. It embodies one and a half years of your sweat. Your hardworking spirit and good learning habits must be maintained. The road ahead is still long. You are a sensible child, and I can see your inner conviction from your expression. I believe you can better adhere to your good habits and take every step well.
Achievements are not easily obtained. Whether it is children who win scholarships or those who have no connection with scholarships, we all have a pursuit of better goals in our hearts. We also need to believe that as long as we pay, we will reap, and as long as we work hard, we will get returns. We are continuously striving, so we are constantly improving, and we are constantly creating brilliance! I hope that after our efforts this semester, our scholarships can advance further!
